Balazs Gibizer 68c970ea99 Add a WA flag waiting for vif-plugged event during reboot
The libvirt driver power on and hard reboot destroys the domain first
and unplugs the vifs then recreate the domain and replug the vifs.
However nova does not wait for the network-vif-plugged event before
unpause the domain. This can cause that the domain starts running and
requesting IP via DHCP before the networking backend finished plugging
the vifs.

So this patch adds a workaround config option to nova to wait for
network-vif-plugged events during hard reboot the same way as nova waits
for this event during new instance spawn.

This logic cannot be enabled unconditionally as not all neutron
networking backend sending plug time events to wait for. Also the logic
needs to be vnic_type dependent as ml2/ovs and the in tree sriov backend
often deployed together on the same compute. While ml2/ovs sends plug
time event the sriov backend does not send it reliably. So the
configuration is not just a boolean flag but a list of vnic_types
instead. This way the waiting for the plug time event for a vif that is
handled by ml2/ovs is possible while the instance has other vifs handled
by the sriov backend where no event can be expected.

Operators

To learn how to deploy and configure OpenStack Nova, consult the documentation available online at:

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:

Developers

For information on how to contribute to Nova, please see the contents of the CONTRIBUTING.rst.

Any new code must follow the development guidelines detailed in the HACKING.rst file, and pass all unit tests.
